Spells and walls and monsters

As every body knows (?), some spells can not be put in magic walls (for example : banishment), the wall will just do- nothing. I don't know why, but it is.

Something is stranger : some spells will never be cast by monsters ! For example, all mana bolt, balls, etc..., sunspear, and others...

Is there any reason ?

Some spells are given only to certain people - i.e. sunspear is only to Valerial followers.
As for the manaball, I think it may just be the monsters are given the more common rods - banishment, icestorm etc..

I think i did'nt explain well the problem : if you make a monster with the spell "mana ball" in his inventory, he won't cast it (even with level 100, 4000 sp, attuned everything, etc...). And mana ball is just a "normal spell". just like sunspear, and others... There seems to be no logic in what spells are cast and what are not.

If you make a monster with the spell "godly retribution" in his inventory (god given) he will cast it !
